She has curated displays including Seizing an Instant: Photographs by Roger Mayne and Private View: British Pop and the Sixties Art Scene. Karen Wright is a writer and curator based in London. She co-founded Modern Painters magazine with Peter Fuller and is currently senior editor for Phillips de Pury & Company.
De baanbrekende fotografe Ida Kar (1908-1974) is een sleutelfiguur in de geschiedenis van de fotografie. Zij heeft een cruciale rol gespeeld bij de acceptatie van fotografie als kunstvorm. In 1960 werd zij in London als eerste geëerd met een solo-retrospectieve overzichtstentoonstelling.
Volledig geïllustreerd en voorzien van niet eerder vertoond archiefmateriaal, toont dit prachtige boek Kars werk uit de jaren 1950, dat leidde tot de retrospectief van 1960 in de Whitechapel. Dit boek bevat literaire figuren zoals Iris Murdoch, Doris Lessing, Colin Maclnnes en T.S. Elliot; en portretten van Jean-Paul Sartre, André Breton en Georges Braque.
Deze herwaardering van haar oeuvre biedt een waardevol overzicht van de kunstenaars en schrijvers die drie decennia lang door Ida Kar werden gedocumenteerd.
Begeleidde de gelijknamige tentoonstelling in de National Portrait Gallery, in London (10 maart-19 juni 2011)
